DAILY MAIL: Britain has 85 sharia courts
Britain has 85 sharia courts: The astonishing spread of the Islamic justice behind closed doorsAt least 85 Islamic sharia courts are operating in Britain, a study claimed yesterday.
The astonishing figure is 17 times higher than previously accepted.
The tribunals, working mainly from mosques, settle financial and family disputes according to religious principles. They lay down judgments which can be given full legal status if approved in national law courts.
However, they operate behind doors that are closed to independent observers and their decisions are likely to be unfair to women and backed by intimidation, a report by independent think-tank Civitas said.

British legislators have urged the government to engage in talks with "moderate elements" within Hamas, saying that the Quartet's policy of shunning the Palestinian group until it accepted previous understandings with Israel, renounced violence and came to terms with Israel's existence, had proven to be counterproductive. The Foreign Affairs Committee in Britain's House of Commons on Sunday issued a report in which it reiterated a request to talk to Hamas initially made two years ago.
